Here are the pics that i promised yesterday... I saw them and I can't still believe I was there (except because of the intense pain in all my body that reminds that I was in fact there lol), as I said before it was the best concert of my life, I felt that I was in the best place in all the foro sol, exactly at the center but not in the first row, where I think sometimes you only see their feet and you get a pain in the neck for looking above of you all the time , I was a couple meters behind where I could see all the stage but at the same time I saw them so close that I could never imagined and I could see the expression on their faces so clear. I always complain about my height (1.75 m. or 5'9") which for being a woman from the central/southern part of Mexico is extremely tall, but at this moment I though "Thank god that I'm so tall" because I could see all the concert almost perfectly all the time, only in certain moments my vision was blocked for so many cameras and cellphones.
Some of the moments that I remember the most:
- In a moment between songs, Guy was standing in front of me, and I couldn't resist and I screamed "GUUYYY I LOOVEEE YOOUUU", but exactly at that moment everyone was very silent... I felt very ashamed , surely Guy heard me and many of the persons around me turn their heads to look at me... and some guy (a man not a woman) screamed "MEE TOOO"
- The End of Politik... although Politik is not my favorite song (I'm not big fan of the begining of it, although live is awesome), I have always considered the second part of the song my favorite Coldplay moment, and I simply cried on it, I couldn't help it
- In Viva la Vida, hearing directly Will's drum and bell was so cool ( I mean by hearing directly not by the sound of the concert)
- In Yellow, the crowd became extremely crazy (they were trying to touch the big yellow ballons) and the pushing was so intense... at the beginning it was funny but in certain point I felt that I was about to die.
Well there were so many more moments that I remember of the concert (and in fact some even before the concert, stupid funny things that can only happen in mexican crowds), but the list would be so big that I would have to write all night.

OMG This was the best concert of my life, I was exactly in front of Chris in the 5th row or something, it's like a dream come true, I wished so much for so many years to see my fav band close and finally this night I did it, I couldn't stop screaming and singing, and the crowd was crazy I though I would die in Yellow . I think it was the same setlist than yesterday.

Hey everyone! The show was great last night, I got to stand by the fence with Angie, Kirsten, Kelly and Kevin right next to the c-stage Sorry for not tweeting, but I did a lot of spamming during the first gig and I just wanted to enjoy the show last night. It was the same setlist, and even thought the place was not sold out it was pretty close to it I gotta get going 'cause I gotta check out from my hotel and catch my flight to Guadalajara. I'll write propper reviews and upload vids (I've hardly taken any pics) once I'm back home

The Oracle on 7 March 2010: Foro Sol, Mexico City, Mexico
March 15, 2010 - submitted by Mariana, Mexico
Q. Dear Oracle: in the concert in Mexico City on March 7 in the "Foro Sol", how did Chris knows that day was the day of the family?? Because he said in Spanish "feliz dia de la familia" - thanks for answer.
The Oracle replies:
We'd heard earlier in the day because the area around the hotel was closed to vehicles. A few people had ventured out to go shopping and seen families with children playing in the streets for themselves. The band do take an interest in what's going on around them and that's also why Chris is very keen to speak the local language with a few colloquialisms thrown in; there was a pretty rude word used in Guadalajara much to the crowd's delight!
